How to handle the Recent Documents List?

Hi,
the topic title contains my question: How can I manipulate the recent documents list? Because my Add-In use the SaveAs method (from Word2010 _Document object) to save the document into a temporary folder, and I want not put these temporary files into the recent documents list.
Can someone help me?

Additionaly, I want ask what is the diference between SaveAs and SaveAs2 methods? And if there is a method like "Save a Copy" (because now I'm saving the documents twice: the first to create the temporary copy, and the second to restore the document to its original location).

Regards,
Sergio

Sergio,

Please see the Application.RecentFiles property at http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/ff195679%28v=office.15%29.aspx.

I was unable to find any comment on difference between Document.SaveAs() and Document.SaveAs2(). Note however that the latter provides an extra parameter called CompatibilityMode, see http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/ff836084%28v=office.15%29.aspx.

No such method exists.

Thanks Andrei.

In my case, I used the following code (to remove the last document from recent list): 

WordApp.RecentFiles.Item(1).Delete
